For those who made the switch already is there a real need to acclimate the lighting between the 26 and the 32?
I have a old 26 and 52 that i used( the 52 for the sps side and the 26 for the zoa side and just lighting ). Is there a difference the new and old gen but just more of the same channels? Should i just be able to match the par readings and set and forget? Or should i just run the acclaimate setting for 2 weeks?
 
While I haven't made the switch myself, there's not a massive difference - so I probably wouldn't bother acclimating. Essentially you're getting about 25% more lights in a tighter cluster.
 
So i can just match up par numbers and there wont be a difference.
